Chateau La Mondotte 2011

Professional reviews

BOW (9-)

Parker (93)

The 2011 La Mondotte has a very pure, defined bouquet that offers luscious dark cherries and blackberry scents, hints of violet petal emerging with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a silky smooth entry, very well-judged acidity and a seamless finish that slips down the throat with style. This is simply a gorgeous and voluptuous Saint Emilion that will seduce at twenty paces, which is something you could not ascribe to many 2011s.

Winespectator / James Suckling (93)

Juicy, with lots of ripe plum, anise and blackberry flavors, mixed with licorice snap and Black Forest cake accents. The fruit is exuberant and filled out for the vintage, showing well-embedded acidity and excellent energy through the finish.
